      Fair warning. It’s a proper Cyberpunk story.

        What does that warning mean? That it’s bad, that it’s good, that it released in a broken state…?

        EDIT: Got it now, thanks.

          If you’re looking for a happy ending…wrong people, wrong city.

          Still a fantastic show though, literally brought the game back from the dead.

          Cyberpunk: 2077 is a videogame based on the Cyberpunk TTRPG. Cyberpunk is also a literary genre. When I say Cyberpunk, I mean the genre in which both the TTRPG and videogame live.

          The anime is very good but the story follows the tropes of the cyberpunk literary genre. Unfortunately, if you are not familiar with the genre, I cannot explain it without spoiling the story.

      If you wanna watch it, def do English dub. That’s actually the more authentic dub for this anime.

      It’s set in California, so the accents are closer with eng dub. Also in eng dub, Hispanic characters say some words in Spanish, Japanese in Japanese, etc.
